The guy who originally designed and made them 25 some years ago came into a thread and offered to make another run for basically the cost and shipping...I doubt if little or any profit was turned. I ordered a few when he made the run...it was about 3-4 years ago. All came quickly and were of MUCH better quality than expected for the price, better even that the original one I bought at Perris so long ago! When wearing mine, I've had long time jumpers ask about getting a copy, but when I emailed the artist I received no response. Got a feeling his one-time run 3 0r 4 years ago was just that...I think the ones on Ebay are remaining inventory from that run, that I think the artist's brother is liquidating. The designer is in Europe, his brother in the US shipped me mine from the states, back when I ordered them. Nice shirt and a real piece of skydiving 'history' so to speak, that being said...I was asked to change shirts at a small DZ a few years back. I was told that's not the politically correct image of skydiving today and not something they felt students should be exposed to. They did GIVE me another cool shirt to change into, and I did get a laugh realizing where the sport has gone...now there is a DRESS CODE! ~A couple years ago I gave a talk on demo safety at the PIA convention...wearing that shirt. Fortunately most people know my dry sense of humor and 'got the ironic jab' so to speak. ~ If you choke a Smurf, what color does it turn? ~ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
